My children’s other parent is not a good influence
on our children. What can I do to change the current
visitation arrangement?

Contact your attorney about going to court and changing
the visitation arrangement, or you can try mediation.
Mediation is a way to resolve conflict in which a
neutral third party, a mediator, helps the conflicting
parties come to an agreement. It can be less expensive
than going to court and may result in an agreement that
will work better for both of you and your children.
Also, mediation has been found to help children adjust
to divorce in the long term. For more information about
mediation or to find a mediator in your area, contact
the Academy of Family Mediators at
